JLIN (Planet Mu - Gary, IN)
https://soundcloud.com/jlinnarlei
2015 Album of the Year at The Wire and The Quietus #3 on Resident Advisor.
"As the popularity of Footwork has continued to soar, the range of sounds within the genre has expanded. From the angular, minimal beats of RP Boo to the widely admired sound of sadly departed DJ Rashad, the genre has lovingly seeped into hearts and feet worldwide whilst continuing to innovate. Until now most of the focus has been on the male DJ/Producers, but that is about to change. Gary based producer Jlin, who some of you might remember for her track Erotic Heat (Bangs and Works Vol.2 Planet Mu 2011), or from her moment in the mainstream light providing music for fashion designer Rick Owens F/W 14 Paris runway show, is stepping further into the light with a stunning eleven track debut album Dark Energy showcasing her unique and bold new sound.
Gary, Indiana, a neighbouring City to Chicago, is one of those towns people overlook or perhaps expect the worst of. It's famous for the Jackson 5 and its Steel Mills, one of which Jlin works long shifts at. She says her sound and the themes behind my tracks are all based off what my creativity absorbs, whether it be bad or good, and the music certainly shows that intent. It's forceful, yet ripples with colour; its an intense, monolithic sound with rugged rhythms that stop and breathe and roll out in unusual staccato patterns. Its a sound unlike any other out there, one thats fiercely unique." Planet Mu http://www.planet.mu/discography/ZIQ356
DJ NOIR (Juke Bounce Work - Los Angeles, CA)
A dj, creative director, photographer co-founder of Juke Bounce Werk- a collective of "tastemakers as well as performers, Juke Bounce Werk (or JBW, for short) has fostered the rising awareness of the footwork movement in Los Angeles and abroad. The devoted group comprises DJs, producers and artists who use their passion for the groove to promote juke to the masses. Insomniac headed to JBWs studio compound in sunny San Pedro, California, to learn more about the history and future of the 150160-BPM genre during their weekly gathering and rwd.fm radio show. In true crew fashion, they preferred to have their answers credited to the group as opposed to any individual." - Amanda Ross (https://www.insomniac.com/media/spreading-love-dance-juke-bounce-werk)
